Method and system for electronic packaging for a headset
View Patent ↗A product packaging comprises circuitry and a speaker that are operable to detect when the product packaging is opened and/or removed from the packaging, and in response to detecting the removal and/or opening, play one or more pre-loaded audio messages via the speaker. The pre-loaded audio message includes a welcome message and/or setup instructions, which may be interactive. The circuitry and/or the speaker generates an interactive audio dialog that is utilized to customize setup of the product (e.g., a gaming headset), and may receive corresponding audio responses from a user of the gaming headset, in response to one or more audio prompts for the interactive audio dialog. The circuitry and/or the speaker may select settings for the gaming headset based on the received corresponding audio responses. The circuitry and/or the speaker may configure the gaming headset based on the selected settings and generate an audio summary of the selected settings.
1. A method comprising:
detecting, by a magnetic switch of a packaging of a gaming headset, removal of said gaming headset from said packaging;
transmitting, by circuitry of said packaging, a signal to said gaming headset in response to said detecting said removal of said gaming headset;
receiving, by circuitry of said gaming headset, said signal transmitted by said circuitry of said packaging, and
in response to receipt of said signal, playing, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, one or more pre-loaded audio messages via a speaker of said gaming headset, wherein:
said one or more pre-loaded audio messages are part of an interactive audio dialog that is utilized to customize setup of a gaming headset; and
said one or more pre-loaded audio messages comprise one or more audio prompts for said interactive audio dialog, and the method comprises receiving one or more corresponding audio responses from a user of said gaming headset.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises a welcome message.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises setup instructions.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises interactive setup instructions.
5. The method according to claim 1 , comprising selecting, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, one or more settings for said gaming headset based on said received one or more corresponding audio responses.
6. The method according to claim 5 , comprising configuring, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, said gaming headset based on said selected one or more settings.
7. The method according to claim 6 , comprising presenting, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, an audio and/or visual notification when said configuring of said gaming headset is complete.
8. The method according to claim 5 , comprising generating, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, an audio summary of said selected one or more settings.
9. A system comprising:
product packaging comprising a magnetic switch and transmit circuitry; and
a gaming headset comprising receive circuitry, audio processing circuitry, and a speaker, wherein:
said magnetic switch is operable to detect removal of a gaming headset from said packaging, from said packaging;
said transmit circuitry is operable to transmit a signal to said gaming headset in response to said detection of said removal of said gaming headset;
said receive circuitry is operable to receive said signal transmitted by said transmit circuitry;
said audio processing circuitry is operable to, in response to receipt of said signal, play one or more pre-loaded audio messages via said speaker of said gaming headset;
said one or more pre-loaded audio messages are part of an interactive audio dialog that is utilized to customize setup of a gaming headset;
said one or more pre-loaded audio messages comprise one or more audio prompts for said interactive audio dialog; and
said audio processing circuitry is operable to receive one or more corresponding audio responses from a user of said gaming headset.
10. The system according to claim 9 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises a welcome message.
11. The system according to claim 9 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises setup instructions.
12. The system according to claim 9 , wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio message comprises interactive setup instructions.
13. The system according to claim 9 , wherein said headset comprises circuitry operable to select one or more settings for said gaming headset based on said received one or more corresponding audio responses.
14. The system according to claim 13 , wherein said headset comprises circuitry operable to:
configure said gaming headset based on said selected one or more settings; and
generate an audio summary of said selected one or more settings.
15. The system according to claim 14 , wherein said headset comprises circuitry operable to present an audio and/or visual notification when said configuring of said gaming headset is complete.
16. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon, a computer program having at least one code section that is executable by a machine for causing the machine to perform steps comprising:
detecting, by a magnetic switch of packaging of a gaming headset, removal of said gaming headset from said packaging;
transmitting, by circuitry of said packaging, a signal to said gaming headset in response to said detecting said removal of said gaming headset;
receiving, by circuitry of said gaming headset, said signal transmitted by said circuitry of said packaging, and
in response to receipt of said signal, playing, by said circuitry of said gaming headset, one or more pre-loaded audio messages via a speaker of said gaming headset wherein said one or more pre-loaded audio messages are part of an interactive audio dialog that is utilized to customize setup of a gaming headset; and said one or more pre-loaded audio messages comprise one or more audio prompts for said interactive audio dialog, and the method comprises receiving one or more corresponding audio responses from a user of said gaming headset.
